CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12840 Posts	Posted 07/31/2018 12:25 am Coin was possibly cleaned (harshly). There are pits, nicks, dings, and fine scratches along with the tarnish and gunk. Funky splotching on the obverse patina. IMO whatever the grade, this would get a "details" qualifier, but I will let the experts weigh in. Report this Post to the Staff
